You Will Need (10 things)

  • 5 g Seed Beads Sz 6 (Green)
  • 3 g Seed Bead(s) Sz 11 (Blue)
  • 3 g Seed Bead(s) Sz 11 (Pink)
  • 3 g Hex Bead(s) Sz 8 (Yellow)

  • 1 "Made With Love" Charm
  • 1 6mm Jumpring
  • 1 Pair Earwires
  • 2 50mm Headpins
  • 1 Bracelet (4 coil) Memory Wire

Steps (10 steps, 90 minutes)

  1. 1

    Take the memory wire
    bracelet and curl the end into a
    tight loop. Memory wire is very
    stiff so push it round the pliers
    with your fingers to get a
    smooth loop.

  2. 2

    Start threading on the
    beads in this manner:-
    1 Blue Sz 11 seed Bead
    1 Yellow Sz 8 Hex Bead
    1 Pink Sz 11 Seed Bead
    1 Green Sz 6 Seed Bead
    1 Pink Sz 11 Seed Bead
    1 Yellow Sz 8 Hex Bead
    1 Blue Sz 11 Seed Bead
    1 x 6mm Crackle Glass Bead

  3. 3

    Keep repeating the pattern
    in Step 2, pushing the beads
    round the coil to the end of the
    wire.

  4. 4

    When you get to the end,
    leave a little spare so you
    can form it into a tight loop
    as at the start.

  5. 5

    Open the jump-ring and use
    it to connect the heart tag to
    one of the loops at the end of
    the bracelet.

  6. 6

    You have now finished
    your bracelet, now for
    matching earrings…….

  7. 7

    Thread some beads on the
    headpin to match the design on
    the bracelet. Turn the wire over
    some round nose pliers and
    trim off the excess with wire
    cutters, making sure you leave
    enough to form a loop.

  8. 8

    Using round nose pliers,
    form the bare wire into a
    nice neat loop.

  9. 9

    Open the loop on an earwire
    and attach the loop on the
    beaded headpin to it, make sure
    it is closed again tightly to
    secure.

  10. 10

    Make a second one to
    match.
